Crocket & Jones a hallmark of quality

December 16, 2015

Founded in 1879 by James Crockett and his brother-in-law Charles Jones, this world renowned, 5th generation Northampton shoemaker specialise in the manufacture of high quality Goodyear-welted footwear. Crockett & Jones stands at the pinnacle of the footwear industry. Synonymous with English shoemaking at its very finest, the company is still firmly dedicated to the highest standards of traditional craftsmanship and an uncompromising commitment to quality – second to none.

The Crockett & Jones men’s range consists of three handmade collections; the Hand Grade Collection, the Main Collection and the Cordovan Collection.

With over 60 styles in a variety of different fittings, various leathers, suedes and sole units available in stock and to order from Andrew Gardner in Wendover.

Crockett & Jones offers a full refurbishment service for its Goodyear welted shoes and boots through Andrew Gardner. The shoes are returned to the factory in Northampton, where they are: stripped down, re-welted, re-soled and re-heeled on the appropriate lasts, to retain their shape, by the skilled craftsmen and women.

Now after more than 135 years Crockett & Jones’ shoes still retain the attention to detail, quality, comfort and durability that was the hallmark of their founders, Sir James Crockett and Charles Jones.
